KT Tape, Pro Synthetic Kinesiology Athletic Tape, 20 Count, 10” Precut Strips

Been using this product for 10 years, ever since I was an injury-prone athlete treating jumpers knee, shin splints, IT band syndrome, knee surgery and shoulder impingement. Worked so well, the staff at Memorial Hermann in Houston doing my physical therapy took an interest for their other clients. Now that Im in cancer treatment, Im very prone to vicious calf and foot arch cramping, as well as vascular pain where the blood vessels just burn and ache in this one spot on the inside of my calf. I was pretty beat up from three airports and in so much leg pain, I could barely stand up to help my family do a puzzle over the dining room table. Also knew I was hiking up a small mountain on the same trip so I was in dire straits Enter KT Tape! Taped my problem arch and soleus muscle where the vascular pain happens and some of the cramping. Hike went off without any pain! When I got to the car, my knees were pretty beat up from the descent and overall body inflammation. Used my old jumpers knee taping technique, and poof, my pain was gone before I got home with takeout. Also, it never came back! This helped me avoid days of knee soreness. The Pro version is totally worth it. Seems more expensive, but if you apply it to clean skin and not over lotion or sunscreen —put that stuff AROUND it—its actually more economical because itll last through multiple days of showers. And because the metallic sheen on the purple just looks that cool!

Works. Doesnt take the pain away totally, but significantly. Stayed on through 3 lap swims over a 5 or 6 day period. I finally pulled it off. No skin irritation. Will buy again. Even reduced the pain during daily movement / chores.

Adhesive power was better before

I tried the KT Tape a while back for minor issues and really couldnt tell the difference. I threw my back out a month ago, babied it, forgot I had the KT Tape. Back got better very slowly, then finally was all better...until I tried to drag a 50 pound mat. Oops. Back went out and I was back to square one, which meant I could barely walk and sitting and laying down werent too comfy either. I remembered the KT Tape this time, put it on the wrong way, and it still made an instant difference in the pain. I didnt expect it to work as I was walking out of the bathroom right after applying it! Im still using a heating pad and a little ice, but hoping I dont have a 4 week recovery period again, and that I can sit at my desk and work. Thank you KT Tape!

I work at a warehouse and these tape have been helping me a lot with rotator cuff pain. When not wearing them, the difference is noticeable. They can stay on my skin for 3-4 days even with constant shower. Only thing is, like other reviews mentioned, these tape cause rashes and irritation on skin. Changing them every 2 days seems to be helping with the rashes but not with itchiness while wearing them.

Easy to use and gives me the support I need.

This works good for sore knees, elbows, back, or wrist!

I have patellofemoral syndrome in my left leg that I developed while hiking the White Mountains in New Hampshire. I did a lot of research and PT stretches and found that taping my knee provided the most relief. I not tape my knees before any vigorous physical activity and this tape in particular holds up to the sweat and the rubbing of my hiking pants. I’ve tried other kinesiology tapes, but this brand is the best!

LOVE THE COLOR!! works so well

Not sure if this the production line and/or quality of this particular color, beige, it did not adhere at all like the other two colors, blue and black, I used many times in the past and stayed at least 2 days! It is worst than the cotton version I used, It kept coming off as I start running, knees mostly but lower back also did not stay after 1st time I took shower!
